Info 969: Robbers, Rooftop and Witches - Antaeus - comparison


This is a comparison of the abridged, 10 minute version of Antaeus included on the "Robbers, Rooftops and Witches" DVD (45 minutes, including 2 other films) and the full 20 minute version, available on a separate DVD. Please note, that I don't own the full movie, missing the beginning and I don't trade. I haven't checked my original recording, yet, but some digitized clips which are splitted. So not 100% sure of the right order.

All or almost all scenes were shortened around the half. Other side actors (mother of Rusty and neighbor) were cut out and other locations removed. One full scene at Rusty's home, which TJ visited was completely removed (1 minute) showing them dining, undressing the sweater at a sink and non-bibs headshots. I think this is between the 3rd scene (bucket -earth to roof, starting at 18'18'' in "Robbers" and sowing-scarecrow scene at 19'36''). Maybe the beginning is also abridged next to missing credits, intro and outro. The end is the same.

One brief scene is only on the abridged Robbers version where TJ lying on the stomach, bird's eye view at 20'45''.

All pics here (click to enlarge) are only in the full version. Some more in my other posts. Pic 2 of the main entry is around pic 2, pic 3 of the main entry shortly after pic 4 here (best scene, hunker down and standing up).
Picasa slideshow and Wordpress don't work anymore, so pics are now on this Google Photo Album
